Seeing as we already have a pubg thread for pc players thought I'd start this up for new Xbox players.

Downloaded and had a quick game this morning before work, the controls will take a bit of getting used too.

Already have most Xbox players gamer tags from destiny but if you don't have mine it's dalzo .

Is it a play anywhere Xbox/Windows title?

Is a game preview version going to be the full version when it's finished? Or will you have to pay more again in the future?

You won't have to buy again.

No aim assist, it needs it.
Some very unintuitive controls in it.. for console play.(reload and look through scope to major ones)
The menu/inventory system is fairly clunky and slow. very slow compared to PC. But circle runs at the same speed??
Are there less vehicles on Xbox?

really enjoying ti

Hi - Also downloaded and played it yesterday. Tried both solo and squad with randoms which was ok but without voice chat working, it was almost impossible to work together except after we got a car and when one player decided it was time to leave he honked the horn until everyone got back in the car !

Had a couple of lag freezes last night which didn't prove fatal but was annoying. managed to get to 4th in one game but didn't kill anyone!

The secret to success seems to be a mix of understanding the controls, map knowledge, and learning how to shoot accurately. I watched some streams yesterday and they decided it was best to have a shotgun in close proximity fighting due to the lack of aim assist.

I'm also new to all this xbox stuff, so some friendly faces would be welcome - GT is 'Kasabia X' and will normally be on after 10pm when the missus has gone to bed !

Just got this also

XBL Tag: TheSizeMachine

Controls a little odd/hard to get used to but it should not take long, highly addicted already

Just got my first chicken dinner in duos!! A combined 19 kills between us , nearly 1/5 of the players lol

Just a few tips for everyone:
Controller settings set deadzone to 5 and sensitivities to 4 until you get to 8x and 15x change these to three
Don't press X to equip stuff, press start then do it from there it's much quicker.

Mark your landing zone and go completely horizontal until your over your target then go completely vertical and fly down

Mansion,school and military are the best for guns but are the most dangerous

Last few circles(generally 20 people left) try not to use vehicles

Aggressive tactics is also key imo,catching the winner of a firefight while he's low on ammo/reloading is easy pickings

The last 20 and not using vehicles is not always a bad idea.
Me and trash last night managed to get to the last 6 by using a boat. if possible . put the boat to the side on the sand bank. hid and killed a few.
died when another duo was hiding and nurfed us. but killed a few in cars beforehand

Managed to get 2nd

Fully into this now, I find I can get into the top 20 easily if i just hide on the outer reaches (coward) & search the smaller buildings, get a car then try to get to the care packages first.

It would be better playing in a team with you guys tho, can see that being a good laugh.

got to 4th on solo last night with terrible weapons - could not find one rifle, all I had was a pistol and an uzi. However, got a buggy and got towards the final few circles as others got picked off. Gets very tense as it squeezes down...... then got shot in the back frown

I did this as well when starting out, but you will never win as you won't get the gear and meds you need for the final battle.

The trick is to be aggressive, hunt other players and steal their gear. It will also get you better at winning firefights (i'm still awful).
